Nature, Man and Woman
Alan Watts
"Mr. Watts discusses the origins of [human] alienation from nature in Christianity and Western thought, contrasted with the Chinese philosophy of the Tao and its vision of nature as an organic whole in which man is fully included and feels at home."
According to "Eastern Philosophy" or "Mysticism," the root of the alienation is not Christianity or Western thought, but instead the conscious, or "rational," mind. And it doesn't reject mind as being "unnatural".
That's why China and all the other Eastern countries in which Buddhism, and Taoism, etc., are practiced are utopias, while the West is a broken down ghetto suffused with anxiety over losing one's material goods.
